Panthers signed No. 169 overall pick ILB David Mayo to a four-year contract.

Mayo recorded the second-most tackles in college football last year with 154. With Luke Kuechly starting at inside linebacker, Mayo's best chance to see the field this season will be to carve a role for himself on special teams. Thu, May 7, 2015 09:10:00 PM

Panthers selected Texas State ILB David Mayo with the No. 169 overall pick in the 2015 NFL draft.

The Sun Belt Defensive Player of the Year in 2014, Mayo (6'1/235) ranked second in the entire country with 154 tackles. Mayo posted a 4.74 40 at his Pro Day, and managed 24 reps on the bench to go along with a 34.5-inch vertical. Mayo will have to earn his keep on special teams, but could eventually play himself into a role on defense. Sat, May 2, 2015 03:15:00 PM

Panthers LB Thomas Davis said he would like to play in 2019 "if the team will have me back."

Davis originally planned to retire following this season, but a four-game suspension changed his mind -- he does not want to end his career "on a sour note." A first-round pick all the way back in 2005, Davis has spent his entire career in Carolina. It sounds like the Panthers are the only team he would play for in 2019.
